I recently went to a camera show in Fort Washington, PA and found a Zeiss Ideal (6.5 x 9cm) (pictured below) for cheap. The lens works perfectly and bellows are in nice shap. I just purchased a roll film back for it and have been searching for a ground glass back so I can focus the lens wide open.. Does anyone know where I could find one?

Until you find one or grind one yourself, you can use a cut piece of plexi glass (or from a CD case) with matte scotch tape to focus on. It works very well.
